Abstract | ||||
The mucosa of the intrapulmonary airways of the one-humped camel was mainly formed of the usual ciliated columnar cells, basal cells, goblet cells, brush cells and the non-ciliated cells of Clara. Basal cells and goblet cells, were found only in large airways and wore scarce or absent in the bronchiolar epithelium. Brush cells were rarely found in-between the bronchlolar epithelium. The non-ciliated Clara cells were the prominent cell-type in the lining epithelium as far distally as terminal and respiratory bronchioles | ||||
